Per Unit Analysis - how does it work? (with examples) || Basics of Power Systems Analysis

[@mayurm9917]

we lack such level of clearity in our educational system. Thanks for clearing the most fundamental concept!

[@MoussaKHALFI-zt8kr]

The best vid on youtube explaining per unit systems, do not expand time elsewhere. gonna share it

[@alexnoggle1874]

I'm pretty sure this video showed me everything I need to know regarding per unit on the PE Power exam. Really helpful video.

[@Rattanhistorybuff]

The clearest , easiest to understand explanation of per-unit analysis I have experienced after 25 years of experience and learning and 2 degrees in EE .......well done mate !

[@JohnHickman-c9c]

Thanks for making this topic easy to understand. I have been frustrated by instructors who cannot speak English clearly and don’t know how to explain it.

[@caleb7799]

This should have more likes. You do not rush through stuff and assume that the listener is with you. I like that you take the time and give a small example after each statement. It might be a slower pace for a lot of us impatient engineers, but if we actually listen, we can see that all nuances and bases are covered very well.

[@stambulimisamu4679]

This guy is a genius. Very clear explanation which is very easy to understand

[@JosephAMuniz-hm4jh]

Fantastic! Thank you. I'm taking a power systems class at the moment and was totally lost on per-unit conversions. Your video definitely cleared things up for me. Thank you so much. Very much appreciated.

[@k18-y5e]

as an EEE engineering student, I can speak for all of us when i say you ARE THE PRECIOUS GEM!!

[@ΓιώργοςΜάριοςΜερκούρης]

You explained the whole per unit concept in a much more clear and understandable way than my university professor. Great Thanks!

[@uhameed923]

Very helpful! Very precisely explained! Thanks alot for your time and efforts. Much needed video!

[@GKASHWINTHAN]

Thank you, this is the best video on per unit Ive come across. Keep up the great work

[@MrDaniyalAh]

U have saved my semester. What my teacher couldnt explain in an hour was better expalined here in 10min

[@VisualElectric_]

Thank you

[@AK-rj5fv]

Great explanation of this subject. Watched it a few times and it helped me a lot. Thank you 👍

[@humphreyshapi4709]

Well explained thank you very much now I have a full intuitive understanding of per unit systems

My comment is a bit of a side-track, and doesn't involve the 3-phase example at the end of the video. But following along and practicing the technique presented, I'm wondering if some of the examples, if one saw them in the real world, would represent overloads (for the transformers, at least). At 6:39, the presenter explains that choice of S-base (Sb), the apparent power, can be anything, but good practice says you should choose a value that matches (as closely as possible) the apparent power base of your equipment. With that then in mind… In the example at 22:48, the math of course all works, but in that result, is it true that the apparent power is 23 MVA, noting the chosen Sb was only 10? Doesn't that mean we've blown out both of the transformers, one of which was rated 8 MVA and the other 12 MVA? If the example represented a real system, wouldn't you need to ensure the apparent power never exceeded 8 MVA, the (I'm assuming) apparent power handling rating of the lower of the two transformers? I was led to think about this from the prior example showing the nameplate ratings of a transformer at 17:20, which showed it was rated 50 kVA and 3.39%, and the statement following that the percent impedance only makes sense relative to the transformer's base values. Those base values influence your choice of system base (Sb). In the example at 21:15, both transformers were given as 3% and 5% on 10 MVA, and 10 MVA was chosen as the system base. Working the example, the Ipu came out to 2.31∠-17.1° p.u. (assuming I did it right). This is also 23+ MVA. But we chose 10 MVA as system base, because…somewhere this was a rated limit (came from one or both of the transformers, presumably). It seems like only the first example, at 13:13, had p.u. that were sensible for the apparent power capacity of the system (0.9901 p.u.). The video says that power system engineers recognize that values up to 1 p.u. are immediately recognized as a well behaved system. But in the examples presented in the middle of this video, we get p.u. currents around 2.3, suggesting (if the base values were chosen as the presenter recommends) our analysis has /also/ shown us that these example systems are fubar. Reaction?

[@howardsolitary2801]

the bane of the current education system is the tendency to make things complicated. I wish you could be my uni prof

[@VisualElectric_]

Thanks!

[@danishnaseer9808]

you are amazing i wish i can watch all the adds here again and again it was really helpful thank you again

[@pietheijn-vo1gt]

13:45 if you had chosen R2 to be 100 ohms it would have made these calculations so much nicer

[@JosephAMuniz-hm4jh]

@16:20 did anyone else get Ipu = 2.39 - j0.275??? Not sure how he gets positive j. Spent the last 20 minutes running it through my calculator and Matlab, and still get a -j. Thanks in advance.

[@davenandrew7292]

Sir your video is Gold. Thank you ❤

[@Patrick-cq7ce]

So clear and compact.

[@pspmhmd]

wonderful video about pu in power systems i have many vids regarding this topic and let me tell you that your vid is the most beneficial vid thanks a lot

[@junchengli2432]

Thanks for the great video ! In the last video, I am just wondering if the first transformer ratio is 0.415/11 V instead of 0.415/11 kV ?

[@reenadangi9944]

Excellent concept

[@sandaruwankapila]

superb explanation, Thank you.

[@TheSensation19]

No idea how you get the Ipu in the pu analysis. Can you explain at 16:13

[@kucingbloon8462]

Ipu =Vpu/Zpu

[@KAFKUBA]

Great video but I thought you changed each zone to the new base... ah you covered it... but I also thought you have to be in same voltage base and consider turns ratio

[@surendrakverma555]

Very good. Thanks 🙏🙏🙏

[@alialimjan2406]

Thank you so much for the clear explanation.

[@joseclementenavarrete6982]

Clear as crystal clear, thanks,

[@favouradekogbe9302]

Thanks a lot, this was really helpful!

[@narangtallar7294]

Please upload more videos related to power system and electrical machine

[@colejames6438]

This was very helpful, thank you

[@mohammadayach1632]

Thank you so much

[@shashitm1084]

1000V, 1 ohm impedance should give a current of 1000 A. But your calculations from pu is giving 990.1 A. Why the difference?

[@metaverseplayer]

wonderful. thank you so much

[@gioaliaga8399]

Sir, for the mismatched system base, how come the Vbase of zone 3 is still 20kV? I'm kinda confused...

[@VisualElectric_]

You have to follow the ratio of the transformers to get your voltage base in each zone. The 220kV/22kV transformer ratio is still 10:1, so 200 kV in the middle zone must still give you 20 kV in the load zone. We just need to be careful to adjust the impedance of the transformer so it matches the system base voltages because the 220/22 kV is on a different base.

[@gioaliaga8399]

oh i see... thank you sooo much@@VisualElectric_
